K063373 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the FLEX LOOP COIL SET 3T. Classified as Coil, Magnetic Resonance, Specialty (product code MOS), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Siemens AG (Eriangen, DE). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on November 17, 2006 after a review of 9 days - a notably fast clearance cycle.

This device falls under the Radiology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 892.1000 - the FDA radiology and imaging software oversight framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.

Device pattern: Fast-track predicate clearance. Standard predicate reliance. The short review cycle indicates strong predicate alignment - the FDA found sufficient equivalence without extended technical review.
